A notarized document is not necessarily a legally binding document. A properly written and properly signed and propely notarized document may help you in court, but the only thing a notarized document proves is that the people who signed the document were who they said they were.
Absolutely, Not has to be through a court of law.
A document is legally binding if it has been notarized by a licensed notary. It is also legally binding if it has been filed in court.
A notarized document would be considered as appropriate evidence as to the signature on the document. A notary can only verify what is 'sworn to' in front of them. You obviously have something in mind and should add more details to your query. A notarized document can be used as evidence in court. However, whether it is enforceable depends on the document and what you need it to prove. If two people have a dispute regarding who owns real estate and one has an un-notarized deed and the other has a notarized deed, the one with the fully executed deed will likely win. If a Will was not notarized and state laws require a that a will be notarized, the Will, even if written by the decedent, may be vulnerable to challenges because of the missing notary. If it was notarized and has no technical errors it would be allowed automatically. As in every profession, there are unscrupulous notaries who notarize documents that are obviously forged or fraudulent. Although 'notarized' the court has the power to reject them. That's what courts are for. A notary's acknowledgement does not automatically give credence to just any document.
Yes, I am a notary and courts accept notarized documents.
While notarization adds credibility to a document, it does not automatically make it binding in a court of law. The admissibility and enforceability of a document in a court of law depend on various factors such as the content, legality, authenticity, and compliance with relevant laws. A notarized document may carry evidentiary weight, but its legal impact ultimately depends on the specific circumstances and the decision of the court.
Typically you would not file it with the court. You would present a notarized copy to the person you are doing business with. If it happens to be a court proceeding, then the court would get a copy.
It depends on what the document is and what you want to use it to prove. It may be hearsay or otherwise inadmissible.Added: Yes, and if calledupon to testify, the Notary can only attest to the fact that the person that signed the document they notarized was identified by proper identification papers, and was in their presence when the doucment was signed . . . nothing else.
Yes. If there is a notarized document with the signatures of both parties stating the terms then winning in court should be no problem. It is always up to a judge to establish the validity of the notarized document. However, it seems that what is in the hands of the co-signer is a contract and if the contract is not up held by the main person on the loan, then it seems like the co-signer is in all his/her rights to go to court.
